I love going out to dinner when the wait staff remembers me and greets me like a friend. The looks on my guest’s faces are priceless!!!

Recently, I was asked to make an appearance as Ms. Florida Forestry Queen. Unfortunately there was no clear leadership and miscommunications abounded. Even the day of the event, it was not clear what was going to transpire. I tried to be prepared for anything. After the event, I received this…

Each year, I make the pilgrimage from coast to coast to spend time with my family. It is a journey I greatly anticipate as I find myself not only home sick, but in need of family time after a few months away. I eagerly anticipate my work day to end and the voyage to begin with a dash to the airport. This delight usually melts away like a snowman standing in the sun by the time I make…

I have been fortunate in life in that I have been given the opportunity to have worn many hats. Having a broad level of experiences in life has given my personality a great deal of depth. I have always been a marketer in some role or another. One of these marketing roles was that of an entertainer, in which I marketed what would become my signature brand of “fun, joy and ease" as a…

It is not my job, it is my duty to be inspired and inspire others. Since my early twenties, I have said final farewells to nineteen brave patriots, heroes and friends. Each paid the price for freedom before the rigors of life made them old and gray. These are nineteen friends that I had planned to grow old with, but instead I honor their sacrifice to trade in their future as an…

I am a vertically enhanced female which I normally see as a benefit, except when I am trying to buy clothing. Most of the clothing options for women do not come with a choice for inseam or length. This often leaves me in the dressing room wondering if I can pull of this dress being too short or do these jeans look like capris or a fashion faux pas. I am…

Their less than inspiring attitude spread like a cancer through what was once an optimistic and forward moving team. To managers and fellow peers, it is easy to identify the Nellies and Craigs and see the impact they have on team…

It does not happen often, but sometimes I find myself bored. This week I find myself working remotely with my toes in the sandy.
